I live about 150 miles from an AM station, at 810, in the SF/SJ Bay Area, which has a marginal signal, but usually listenable. Putting a new PSU in a PC about a month ago increased the noise in AM radios 70-100' from the PC to an almost unacceptable level. I had hoped the antenna would boost the signal enough to knock down the noise. The 'noise' is _also_ a signal -- just one that nobody wants to receive. The "C. Crane's Twin Ferrite Antenna" happily 'improves' the reception of the noise -- in addition to the signal(s) you desire. Let me guess: That PSU was "Made in China". Jonesy Yes, you absolutely guessed the right country. I called the tech support and they were less than useful. I asked about a circuit diagram. Sorry, we don't have one to give out. The trick here is that I see absolutely no change at all. One would think maybe the volume might increase, but nay. -- Wayne T. Watson (Watson Adventures, Prop., Nevada City, CA) (121.015 Deg.
